Room 311, Early Wednesday Afternoon (pre-cheer)

Jul 11, 2007 14:11

Alec had indeed finished, and parted with, his last project, leaving him with not much to do.

So he was sorting yarn.

...It was nice to know how much you had to work with, is all.

[OOC: Open, but thread with Rikku locked to her.]

knitting is so manly, rikku, 311

Rikku took a deep breath and stepped across the hall to Alec's doorway. And for the hundredth time, was grateful that Professor Skywalker had taken most of this off her shoulders. If she had to have this conversation with complete strangers, over and over again ...

She shivered and knocked quickly on the door.

"Won't she be at practice?" Rikku asked. "I mean, she's still captain and all, right?" She couldn't quite picture Buffy quitting cheer.

x5_alec July 12 2007, 09:19:48 UTC

"She went home for the rest of the summer, so she won't be around for a while," Alec said, shrugging. He smirked a bit. "Left me in charge of cheerleading, which is not something I'd ever expected, really."

the_merriest July 12 2007, 21:24:40 UTC

"You're one of the co-captains, aren't you?" Rikku said. "Shouldn't be all that surprising. I didn't realize she left, I should've said bye or something. Hope Dawn's okay."

"I think they have some kind of alternate reality thing going on, but Buffy will be back for fall anyway," Alec explained, with a look like he would be rather annoyed if this was not the case. "I am one of the co-captains, but hell if I even knew what cheerleading was before Buffy dragged me into it."

the_merriest July 13 2007, 03:35:42 UTC

"Yeah, she's ... kinda her sister but not, she said? I just meant, you know, I bet she misses her." Rikku shrugged, blushing a little. "I, uh, didn't know what everyone was doing at tryouts. It just looked like people jumping around and yelling and having a good time and I went, 'hey, I should do that.'"

x5_alec July 13 2007, 04:15:24 UTC

"Yeah, don't get me wrong, I love it," Alec said, smiling ruefully. "I just have no clue why I'm co-captain, besides being awesome. It's not like I've got cheer expertise."

the_merriest July 13 2007, 04:23:32 UTC

Rikku grinned. "Maybe she didn't think too much could go wrong while she was away. She's totally just made you into a figurehead, here."

x5_alec July 13 2007, 04:27:55 UTC

"At least she picked an attractive one," Alec said, agreeing grudgingly.

the_merriest July 13 2007, 04:38:21 UTC

Rikku laughed. "Maybe that's it. You're the official eyecandy distraction. Your hotness keeps attention away from her mad powergrab."

x5_alec July 13 2007, 04:42:35 UTC

"I can totally live with that," Alec said with a grin.

the_merriest July 13 2007, 04:48:24 UTC

"Oooh. Does that mean you're in on it?" she giggled. "Or do you just want to lay around being her hot cabana boy?"

x5_alec July 13 2007, 04:52:44 UTC

"I'm not being anyone's hot cabana boy unless I'm getting something out of it," he smirked, punctuating with an arch of perfect eyebrows.

the_merriest July 13 2007, 05:15:18 UTC

"And now the truth comes out," she grinned. "You're involved in her sick, twisted political schemes just to get some action. I see how it is."

x5_alec July 13 2007, 05:17:24 UTC

He nodded after a moment of musing. "I can't think of any better way to take advantage of political scheming. If someone's going to get screwed, at least I'll make sure they enjoy it, then."

the_merriest July 13 2007, 05:20:51 UTC

Rikku shook her head, amused. "You're terrible, you know that? Although if you were really awful, you'd try to do depraved things with the squad while Buffy's away. Like call a naked practice or something."
